I am trying to control a Bose Lifestyle 35 with a 768. When trying to increase volume, it increments by three. If I try to select the next track when listening to an audio CD, it goes from track 1 to track 4. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Try using the learning feature to overwrite the existing commands on those buttons.

I was able to fix this recently on my system.

To see if the fix will work for you, turn on the system to some activity that uses the audio system and use the mode button on your Harmony to go to the 'Control Mode'. Now scroll down to the component that you control the volume on. Find the entry for volume up or down and use that to adjust the volume. If the volume only moves by one, this following fix will work, if not, you need to wait for Harmony to create a fix.

Fix:

Go to the XML for the device. Scroll down until you see the following: (I replaced the greater and less than with '[' and ']')

[OVERRIDE]
[LANGUAGE]
[LANGUAGEELEMENT]

Change it to read:

[OVERRIDE]
[LANGUAGE]
[MINREPEATS]1[/MINREPEATS]
[LANGUAGEELEMENT]

and try your remote again. If that does not work, Change the value from 1 to 0. (I had to use 0) and try again.

The only other issue I've seen after doing this was that the timings for startup and switching were off a little and I had to increase them a few 100 ms.

But my volume now goes up one step per button press.

I began to have the same problem with the navigation menu of my Panasonic DVD Player.

Taking the advice of GunTeach, by adding the tag[MINREPEATS]0[/MINREPEATS], I was able to eliminate the multiple IR commands that the remote was sending.

This didn't work at first, and then I had a brainstorm. The DVD player was reacting as if I was holding down the direction buttons. By setting the button delay to "0 ms" the problem went away.
